REVEALED: Donald Trump Called His Pregnant Wife A ‘Monster’ On Radio

Republican
presidential nominee Donald Trump called his then-pregnant wife, Melania
Trump, a “monster” during an appearance on Howard Stern’s radio show in
2005.

He also described his wife as a “blimp” during the interview, which apparently took place just months after Trump had made lewd comments about groping women and pursing a married woman. He had married Melania, his third wife, earlier that year.

“You know, they just blow up, right?” Trump said of his pregnant wife in December 2005, according to a report by SF Gate.

“Like a blimp — in the right places. In
her case, the right places. I mean she really has become a monster — in
all the right places,” Trump told Stern. “I mean monster in the most
positive way. She has gotten very, very large — in all the right
places.”

The reality TV star has come under fire
after The Washington Post on Friday published an 11-year-old recording
in which Trump uses crude language to describe groping women while speaking to “Access Hollywood” host Billy Bush.

“When you’re a star they let you do it,”
Trump says in the recording. “You can do anything … Grab them by the
pussy. You can do anything.”

He also talked about pursuing a married woman.

“I did try and fuck her. She was married,” Trump said.

Melania responded to the “Access
Hollywood” recording on Saturday, calling her husband’s
comments “unacceptable” and “offensive.”

“This does not represent the man that I
know,” she said. “He has the heart and mind of a leader. I hope people
will accept his apology, as I have, and focus on the important issues
facing our nation and the world.”

The fallout is ongoing for Trump, as several Republican lawmakers have revoked their support of him, and an increasing number are calling for him to drop out of the race.
